welp, there goes my budget for this month…

I just want a god damn little single cab S10 style truck with a full size bed. I don’t need passenger space, I don’t need crazy ground clearance, I don’t need huge tires. I need room for furniture and lumber that my 5’3 ass can get in and out of without having to climb. Bonus points if it’s electric. And no a Maverick is not just as good.

Yeah that’s why we’re sending teenagers that don’t sign out to go to the bathroom instead.

We have to get those astronauts boeing stranded up there back somehow…

Vaping is nothing compared to what they could buy with the money they spent on the whatever exorbitant price this surely costs.

It’s not about the vaping it’s about teaching them to not waste public money on stupid shit.

Imagine paying taxes for education and they spend it on shit like this.

That was the realization I came to before I stopped doing it. One day it just occurred to me to be like “wait a minute, I’m just a kid, i shouldn’t be swearing allegiance to anyone”. I tried not to be annoying about it though.

Implying I can understand the documentation even when it’s available.

Of course.

How much arsenic water would you need to distill down to get a useful amount of arsenic?

No. There’s no reason the content has to be on only one platform other than anti-competitive bullshit. They could all have all the content and differentiate themselves in other ways with quality of life features. Then people would have options without missing out on content.

My peak was one. For like 5-6 years Netflix had enough content to keep me entertained by itself. When the other media companies started pulling their stuff off Netflix to make their own services I started pirating again. Why would I bother keeping track of multiple services when I can get one VPN subscription and have it all plus stuff that isn’t on any of them?

I do work on personal betterment quite a lot and encourage my peers to do so. As for the rest of it, how can I start a support group or YouTube channel if no one gives a shit about me or what I have to say? No one with the power to actually make changes will listen to me. The rest already know change needs to happen but can’t do anything either so it would just turn into another echo chamber. Yes, a more positive one but still an echo chamber.

Looks like it sticks out a bit. Cut a slot in it and use a flathead.

How do you propose we bring this change about about? The one’s who need to do it have no incentive. The rest of us can sit and think about things and blame ourselves for being men all we want but it won’t change anything. I can encourage and support my peers all day long but it won’t help them be more successful in life or get women to like them romantically because I have no social capital either.

We can’t really affect change if we don’t recognize that this is a bed that we made.

The problem is the men that are struggling generally aren’t the same men that made the bed.

That’s what put me on track to that mindset back when I was in school. I was short and shy and a little weird so I was bullied constantly and girls wouldn’t even talk to me. A large part of that bullying was directed at the fact that I didn’t have a girlfriend which led to me being resentful towards women because I felt like they weren’t even giving me a chance. No one ever supported me, not even my “friends”. I felt stuck in that situation and saw no way to change things which led me to be very hateful. Fortunately I got into a different environment when I was in college with kinder people who accepted me and was able to pull out of it. A lot of people are not that lucky or get too deep in the hole to pull themselves out of even if given the chance.

I’d have to double check but I believe that only works on windows and I know for sure you can’t use it for network shares. I have it on my windows desktop but wasn’t able to backup my media server with it.

Civilization exists because of strong people keeping week people in line. It has nothing to do with morality. It put Donald Trump in the white house FFS. Watch what people do when they think no one is paying attention and won’t face any consequences and they show their true colors.

I’m an excellent judge of character. I just had to learn to stop giving people the benefit of the doubt. No one has gotten anything past me in years and I’ve had countless moments of telling others “I told you so” when someone I warned them about fucks them over.
